My profile:

The Constitution provided for the powers

exercised by the legislative, executive and judiciary. Criminal and civil matters are heard

and determined by the judiciary. It has the jurisdiction to pronounce on the legality of

legislative, executive acts and interpret the constitutions (Federal and State). The

Superior Courts (Federal Court, Court of Appeal and High Court) have the status of being

superior courts of record. This means that the decision of a superior court is regarded

as valid and unimpeachable unless it is set aside on appeal. By contrast, the decisions

of inferior courts are subject not only to appeal in the normal manner but also to review

as to whether the matter was within the jurisdiction of that court.
